you may want to now. Because someone’s back, and everything you thought you
knew about this character, you didn’t.

Spoiler Alert!!!

You will not have to read Land of the Noonday Sun to understand When Noonday Ends, but you will not enjoy reading Land of the Noonday Sun as much if you read second. Just sayin’. J

You're still here... Yay! On with blurb and excerpt, then:

When a new attorney accepts a pro-bono case of a woman accused of attempted murder, he finds himself entwined in age-old secrets and a family who will stop at nothing to conceal them—even murder.

Prologue

Sitting at the rear of the courtroom, Tom Turner’s mind
wandered. One person after another approached the judge, claiming their
innocence. He hated doing this, but the law firm where he worked required all
new attorneys to accept hardship cases. To
get your feet wet, they’d said.

Like his father before him, he’d chosen a career as an
attorney. And for once in his life, his parents were actually proud of him.

Still, most attorneys spent their days off golfing. He
couldn’t stand golf, but he’d give anything to be kayaking right now. Often he
thought of changing careers, as his best friend Chad had done. He had thrown
away four years of medical school to manage an outdoor store he’d inherited
from his parents. Tom had always thought that it had been a stupid decision,
but now he wondered. His best friend was married to a beautiful woman, had a
son, and could kayak every day if he wanted.

What Tom really wanted was to take a few months off from
life and hike the Appalachian Trail. After the year he’d had, he needed some
time away from life—all life. But then, his parents would be disappointed, and
he’d miss his niece, Samantha. His sister had been one of the wildest women
he’d ever known. But since she’d had Sam, she’d finally settled down and was
trying to be a good mother. Being a single mother wasn’t easy, and Michelle needed
him. If only to give her at least one night a week to unwind.

Tom threw his head back and closed his eyes. Just the smell
of the courthouse was grating on him today. The oil they’d used on the old
wooden floors was giving him a migraine.

“No contest, Your Honor.” A soft country voice roused him
from his brooding.

Tom forced his eyes to focus on the woman standing in front
of the judge. It couldn’t be. The smooth blond hair, that beautiful country
voice. Brandy? He shook his head to
clear it. Brandy was dead; he’d shot her more than a year ago.

If you've read Land of the Noonday Sun, you know who Tom is and why he's getting a shot as a main character. And I hope you're saying, "What the heck?"

Remember when we used to have to wait to see our friends in school to tell all of them about something exciting that happened at the...
